Re: dynamic/multidimensional arrays in classes

I'm currently having a problem with another array in a class & I can't figure it out - class myClass { function myClass($arr = array( 'item1'=>array('a','b','c'), 'item2'=>array('a','b','c') ) ) { print_r( $arr ); while( list($key,$val) = each($arr) ) { print($key."=".$val); } } } now, if I say $mine = myClass(); it only prints the print_r statement, but not the print($key."=".$val) statment meaning it doesn't even bother entering the loop. However if I say $mine = myClass(array( 'item1'=>array('a','b','c'), 'item2'=>array('a','b','c') ) ); it prints both... is there some reason why I need to repeat the default value when creating the class? I've also tried using a "" string on class creation, but no luck there either. Patrick
